If I could give less than one star I would. My 10-year old dog had a kidney stone and when my husband took her to Dr. Sharma, he said the only option was to euthanize her. That didn't sound right to my husband and I, so we took her to a different vet in Kamloops and they performed a surgery to remove the stone. That was four years ago and she is still alive, healthy, and happy to this day.
After that we never felt confident taking our pets there for medical issues, but I continued to have my cat shaved (lion cut) under sedation there two time a year. It seemed like a simple procedure. That was until they changed the type of sedation and increased the dosage, yet never bothered to tell me it would take several days for the sedation to wear off, instead of the usual 2-3 hours. On the third day, when my poor cat was still not really eating and his 3rd eyelid was covering his eyes, I took him to a different vet because I thought maybe Dr. Sharma's staff had harmed him. The other vet had my cat's records faxed over and discovered he was given a different kind and high dose of sedative.
Since then, whenever I talk about these experiences with other pet-owners I know or meet, they often tell me they too have either had bad experiences with Dr. Sharma or know of someone else who has. If you care about your pet, please do not take them to this vet/hospital... you never know what will happen. Read Less
